Wizard Duel Clen Vierno vs. Malek Poderero Round 2 Clen Vierno | 4 ______________Malek Poderero | 3 Low - 0__________________________Stupefy! - 1 Mid- 0 ____________________________Low - 1 Protego! - 0_______________________Protego!- 0 Stupefy! - 1________________________Low - 0 High - 0 __________________________High - 0 Health: 2________________________Health: 2 Still on the offensive, Clen shoots a low-aimed spell at Malek's ankles, but the fellow Practitioner leaps over it and blasts Vierno with a powerful Stupefy spell. Looking to regain the lead, Malek then fires a low-aimed spell that knocks Clen of his feet. Scrambling to get up, Clen casts a shield spell to protect himself while off-balance, but Malek also casts a shield spell, and the effects of the two are negated. Following up from this confusing ordeal, Clen fires another Stupefy spell at Malek, which makes contact and sends him flying backwards into the wall. Not wanting to be backed into a corner again, Malek blasts a high-aimed spell at Clen's face, but his fellow Gryffindor deflects it with a high spell of his own. Malek has evened the score, but there's one more round to go! Send your Round 3 DSs when ready!

Fantastic modular, Hrw-Amen, very nicely done! Both the exterior and the interior look great, and the lime and yellow colors go together incredibly well. If possible, could you give us an estimate of about how many bricks went into it? You're not the only one. However, I'm glad I did view it, because it really is an incredible MOC!

I say M-O-C and Ay-Fol. Don't know why, but I've never quite liked the sound of "Mock".

What an active imagination you have. Really? I have the exact opposite thing always happen to me; no matter how close I am to the floor vent when I drop a piece, it always finds a way to not fall into it.

The duelists take their positions in the dueling hall, bow, and then the buzzer sounds and the duel begins! Malek starts it off with a sharp flick of his wand, and Clen is lifted several feet into the air by the mid-aimed spell. Malek then follows up with a spell aimed at his opponents face, but Vierno gets a shield spell up in time. Not wanting to continuously be on the receiving end, Clen casts a low-aimed spell at Poderero's knees, but Malek quickly counters with a low spell of his own. Using the blast from the previous pair of spells as a distraction, Clen then weaves right and blasts Malek with a Stupefy spell. Stumbling backwards from the blow, Malek raises his wand and attempts a high-aimed spell, but is hit square in the chest by a mid-aimed spell. Clen jumps to a quick lead over his fellow Gryffindor Practitioner, but there's still plenty of time left for a comeback! Send for Round 2 when ready. Also, Blackknight, you need to update your profile from Student to Practitioner; you have two wins already. MB and I still need an adjudicator if you don't mind.

I'll adjudicate for you guys. Send your DSs my way!

I still only have two wins until Magus! Who wants to take on good ol' Kestrel?

Well, this is certainly a strange thread. I watched about ten minutes of the first episode, and I can see why you guys like it so much. The animation is well done, the characters are adorable, and it actually has a bit of a story to it. However, I don't plan on spending my days watching multicolored ponies on Youtube. Sorry guys, I'm definitely not a brony!

Happy birthday to Sandy and Captain Zuloo! I hope you guys have a wonderful day!

Have fun at Brickworld, Quarryman! We'll eagerly be awaiting your return.

Thanks, LBaixinho! I was afraid that the violin case wouldn't open, but it seems that my worries were in vain! If you have one of the actual "Tommy" style guns introduced in the Batman line, could you see if that fits?

Wizard Duel Diana Fabray vs. Frankfurt Flashburn Round 3 Diana Fabray | 5 ___________Frankfurt Flashburn | 2 ____________________________Pet: Niles Resting... Expelliarmus! - 0_________________Expelliarmus! - 0 Protego! - 0 _______________________Mid - 0 High - 0_________________________Stupefy!- 1 Protego! - 0_______________________Low - 0 Crucio! - 1 ________________________Mid - 0 Health: 4________________________Health: 1 Seizing the opportunity, Frankfurt casts a quick disarming spell at Diana, but she swiftly blocks it with a spell of her own. Frankfurt then follows up with another mid-aimed spell, but it deflects harmlessly off the Slytherin girl's shield spell. Going on the offensive again, Diana winds up to blast a high spell, but is caught in the chest by a jet of red light from the Hufflepuff's wand. Flying backward from the blow, Diana casts yet another shield spell over herself to deflect Frankfurt's next move. She then leaps forward and unleashes a powerful Cruciatus curse, which causes Frankfurt to double over and writhe on the ground in pain. Using the last bit of his energy, Frankfurt raises his wand and prepares to launch another spell, but the buzzer sounds and the duel is over. Congratulations to the winner, Diana Fabray (KielDaMan)! Update your profiles accordingly.

Whoops, I guess I'm stilling figuring out the whole concept of pets... Fixed!

Wizard Duel Diana Fabray vs. Frankfurt Flashburn Round 2 Diana Fabray | 5 ___________Frankfurt Flashburn | 2 ____________________________Pet: Niles Defend - 0 Protego! - 0________________________Low - 0 Expelliarmus! - 0 __________________Stupefy - 0 High - 0________________________Expelliarmus!- 0 Protego! - 0________________________Mid - 0 Crucio! - 0 ________________________ Mid - 0 Health: 5________________________Health: 2 After a dismal first round, Frankfurt's loyal pet, Niles, hops in front of Diana to block whatever she may have planned, but she instead sets up a shield spell which deflects the overzealous amphibian. Looking to inch ahead, Frankfurt unleashes a powerful Stupefy spell, but the Slytherin girl blocks it away harmlessly with a flick of her wand. She then follows up with a high spell aimed at the Auror's face, but she suddenly finds her wand blown out of her hand by Frankfurt's well-placed disarming spell. Lunging forward, Frankfurt then blasts a mid-aimed spell at directly at Diana's stomach, but she puts up another shield spell just in time. Going back on the offensive, Diana casts a quick Cruciatus curse on the Hufflepuff, but Niles jumps in front of it and red-shirts his proud owner. Frankfurt has kept himself from losing even more Health Points, but he hasn't dealt any more damage to Diana, either. There's still one more round to go, but he's going to need a miracle to overcome his fierce opponent. Send for Round 3 when ready!

Frankfurt starts off with a disarming spell while Niles dives at Diana, but she quickly counters the both of them with a disarming spell of her own. She then casts a low spell, which knocks the Hufflepuff flat on his back. As he scrambles to get up, Diana casts a Cruciatus curse on him, and he is forced back down by the pain shooting through his body. Trying his best to overcome the curse, Frankfurt slowly gets up and raises his wand, but the Slytherin girl delivers a high spell right to his face. At a serious disadvantage now, Frankfurt shoots off a Stupefy spell, which catches Diana off guard and throws her across the dueling hall. Diana's off to quick lead in Round 1, but there's still time for Frankfurt to make a comeback! Send for Round 2 when ready.

Another good match, CM! Thanks for adjudicating again, KDM! I'm fine either way, but I don't mind adjudicating for you guys if you want to duel.

Well, I certainly wasn't expecting that! DS for Round 2 sent.

Sorry for the slight delay; DS sent!

Thanks for finding these great pics, Quarry! After seeing these pictures, the only figures I'm still not fond of are the Dwarf and the Dance Instructor(?). The rest look incredible, and I can already see so many creative uses for the new parts and prints!

It's been rather quiet around here lately, so I've decided to shake things up a bit. I challenge Cornelius Murdock (and his Attack Frog, Niles) to a duel!
